 * Hi, I’ve been using WordPress and I need to upload a lot of images. I have a 
   folder on my HDD which contains about 200 images and I want to upload them to
   my WP.
 * Is there any way, how to select all images by one click, upload them and automatically
   generate img tags?
 * Thanks a lot

 * And then type `dir > files.txt` in the folder with images. Open it up in your
   favorite text editor (like NoteTab), strip out all the excess stuff and do a 
   quick search and replace for EOL char, replacing it with something like
    `" alt
   ="" />\n<img src="`
 * Well, that’s what I do 🙂

 * There’s a plug-in called “[Flexible Upload](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/flexible-upload/)”
   that works great for this very thing!

 * hallsofmontezuma: Yes, but I have to insert them to WP too…
    rlecour: This seems
   to be best solution noelgreen: This plugin unfortunately doesn’t allow batch 
   upload 🙁 You have to upload it one by one.
 * Thanks to all for their help, Machi

 * If you have dreamweaver or one of its competitors, it should be able to generate
   the code for you.
